I have many missing plugins after updating Adobe AE... 

 

It's really crazy, I have no idea where to even get started, these are essential to my workflow.

My "trick" is that I have a folder with every installer, PDF of licence emails, presets etc...

When a new update rolls around, I sit down with a coffee and work from top to bottom.  With more and more plugins using installers these days and AEScripts manager, this was the quickest its ever been for me.  

Before I did that, I was searching inboxes for licence codes, resetting passwords to websites to get the downloads - it took hours!  Yesterday, it took 25 minutes from start to finish.

 

Looking at that list, my guess is most of these are from AEScripts and if you use their manager, your account should pick up your purchases (including the free ones) and install them for you.

Partial solve:
open 

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects 2023\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels

copy paste to the 2024 folder

 

As for user presets... still unsure
